November, 5, 2006 - Tiburon, California, United States

From the witness: "We own some fairly high power binoculars so I quickly retrieved them and attempted to fix my gaze on the object in question... I could see the object clearly. It was a perfectly round dark colored disk (flat, no bulges) and it was in constant motion doing gentle and slow “figure eights” tilting and banking and turning slowly. There were no markings on the exterior, no exhaust ports, no lines or markings of any type... the object appeared to be about 30 to 50 feet wide... I guess that the object had a metallic exterior surface."

Witness, with electronics background, observed while driving, "an object which I can best describe as two spheres about 20 feet or so in diameter, connected to each other by some type of rectangular device, dimensions unknown.... I could also not visualize any portholes, antennas, doors or other openings or protrusions. My bearing to the craft I am estimating to be 35 feet AGL (above ground level) and about 35 to 50 feet horizontally from my vehicle."

February, 2, 2007 - Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, United States

"I saw something that was definitely not an airplane, or a seagull, or refracted light from Venus through swamp gas... It was a small, faint and hazy white light... It's path, from when I first noticed it started out parallel to the earth and traveled like this for maybe 5 seconds. Then almost a 90 degree turn at what seemed to be straight up, then another sharp degree of turn up and away at an angle, then another turn at a downward angle, and yet another at a down and backwards angle."

January, 17, 2007 - Grayslake, Illinois, United States

Silver saucer/disk shaped object hovering in the sky completely motionless at about 6000 feet. "It appeared about ½" in size [relative/angular] as I watched through the windshield. The object was saucer-disk shaped and very silver, the sky was clear and its definition crisp, no movement at all; it appeared as if someone held up a silver plate in the sky... it was close enough to plainly see it was not any recognizable aircraft or a balloon, it was a silver saucer.

February, 1, 2007 - Bowdoinham, Maine, United States

The object that I saw was on the opposite side of the highway, hovering perfectly still about 10-20ft above the tree line, which would make it about 50-60 feet in the air. The object itself was an equilateral triangle approximately 15-20ft on the side. At each point, on the underside, was an almost painfully bright bluewhite light. The object was perfectly still, and made no sounds that I could hear.

October, 1989 - Belgium

From October 1989 throughout 1990, hundreds of reports of lighted objects, frequently described as enormous and triangular in shape were recorded in Belgium. Air Force supersonic F-16 jets chased these strange objects, which were simultaneously tracked by both airborne and ground radars. The Belgian Government cooperated fully with civilian UFO investigators, an action without precedent in the history of government involvement in this field.
